Abstract:
OBJECTIVE：To pro vide reference for exposure protection countermeasures for Novel coronavirus （SARS-CoV-2） infection in hospital pharmaceutical staff. METHODS ：According to the recommendations of related medical staff protection guideline，combined with the characteristics and prevention and control requirements of novel coronavirus pneumonia （COVID- 19），based on the basic principle of exposure protection ，actual exposure risk of infections for hospital pharmaceutical staff were evaluated，and the countermeasures for exposure protection were constructed under the epidemic condition of COVID- 19. RESULTS：According to the standard prevention principle and the risk evaluation of infection exposure ，most of the pharmaceutical posts in the hospital belonged to low-risk exposure posts ，and only a few posts belonged to medium-and high-risk exposure posts. Personal protective equipment should be provided according to the exposure risk level of different pharmaceutical posts and work demand. At the same time ，infection protection training should be strengthened ；environment and facilities in pharmacy should be cleaned and disinfected. CONCLUSIONS ：Standard prevention principle should be followed by hospital pharmaceutical staff during epidemic period. Based on the characteristics and exposure risks of pharmacy posts ，and according to the regulations of the hospital，personal protection for hospital pharmaceutical staff should be conducted according to the exposure risk level determined by the pharmaceutical department and relevant management regulations to avoid over-protection or inadequate protection ，so as to ensure the smooth and safe development of pharmaceutical care.
